Bag saver

ABSTRACT

The BAG SAVER is a device that claims the ability to hold, support and create the ability to clean any sort of plastic enclosure/bag in a dishwasher machine.

BAG SAVER is a dishwasher apparatus inserted onto the dish separators of the bottom rack and used to fasten and support a Ziploc bag(or similarly equivalent) to be cleaned and reused.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Stainless Steel Model

The Stainless Steel model is comprised of a stainless steel rod of varying lengths formed in a oblong half circle to fit varying sized seal-able bags(sandwich, gallon, etc.) with a steel alligator clip mounted on one side of the base used to attach the bag to the BAG SAVER, along with a steel cylinder mounted on the other side of the base used to attach the BAG SAVER to the bottom rack of the dishwasher's dish separators. The model will then be coated with a Fluoropolymer or other corrosion resistant/protective finish.

Molded Plastic Model

The molded plastic model is comprised of a molded plastic rod of varying lengths formed in a oblong half circle to fit varying sized seal-able bags(sandwich, gallon, etc.) with a plastic alligator clip(having a steel or plastic spring mechanism) mounted on one side of the base used to attach the bag to the BAG SAVER, along with a plastic or steel(with corrosion/protective coating) cylinder mounted on the other side of the base used to attached the BAG SAVER to the bottom of the rack of the dishwasher's dish separators.

Industrial Model

The industrial model is comprised of either two materials(or a combination of the two) as stated above(stainless steel having a corrosion resistant/protective coating applied) formed as a complete dishwasher rack specifically designed to fit a particular make/model dishwasher or universally designed to fit any dishwasher make/model as a rack insert. The inner portions of the dishwasher rack are comprised of the same bag supports and fastening design as the stainless steel and molded plastic models however permanently attached to the rack insert itself.
